Newbie to VW Campers / Van life

[HavAnAdventure]

Hello All,

We are new owners of a T6.1, having been on our bucket list for over ten years we have finally taken the plunge.
We think we have bought most things that we think we need, however I'm really struggling to find fitted sheets to go over the inflatable mattresses.
Does anyone know of any we have purchased the Vango pop top mattress and the 12cm rock n roll vango mattress.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!!

Less is More in a small van.

I do agree - in most instances and have been a seasoned camper (tents) for many many years, however I'm a lot older now and appreciate my comforts a little more than I used too But thank you for the reply I look forward to learning more as we go.

Duvet cover?

As in, mattress inside the cover?

Will a standard double (or even king size) not fit over?

Welcome to us all @HavAnAdventure !
Upstairs and downstairs we just use a double fitted sheet and tuck it in a bit.
Coverless duvays are great too, no hassle. And they fit in a normal sized washing machine when/if they start to pong!

Thank you I did think about just a normal fitted sheet with maybe a clip to hold them on at the corners.... or maybe we just go without them.... I just wondered if anyone had found some other than textbox which seem really good but a hefty price tag.

Yes I definitely think a normal sheet will fit - but it may slip and slide off as we move hehe!

Now that's a thought at least it can't come off then... its a shame the fitted ones are so very expensive
